If thats scheduled for 2009, its going to look out of date when it finally comes out!
That looks more now than it does future.

Thanks. and this is why im thanking you.

I have a mb slr. Its used and didnt come with the owners manual (130$!) It says slr on the dash. For the life of me I couldnt figure out the r. I made lots of guesses. But duh roadster. what a tard.

To make your thread a bit more friendly here is the car hes talking about:





Meh it looks like their chasing the Jag design. Im not impressed.

Mal - are you claiming that you own a Mercedes McLaren SLR..???? They cost £310k.

If your dash says SLR then the person who sold you it has a real sense of humour..!! If your
car has gull-wing doors...now thats a different matter......

Very nice benz but I'm a family man now and my 401k, IRA, stocks and bonds are way more imp than Conspicuous Consumption purchases.

My family is very happy with our new Pre-Owned 2006 Subaru Tribeca.....

**Still wish I had my Chevelle LS with 18k orig miles on it.Mint condition, garage kept, well maintained... My pop gave it to me as a college grad present.

I sold it to a collector.

Nope. a 94 sl320 but the dash has engraved slr. And I see it referenced here and there as the slr. And it is an slr because it is a "roadster" which i learned from this thread. when buying parts it often is referred to as a roadster as well. So it makes sense.

Mclaren is a modificatin of a mercedes. Kinda like the Ruf porsche is a porsche which ruf modified. Mclaren took an sl and modified it and sold them.

On a slightly unrelated note. Take a regular porsche 911, say a 75. yank the engine and send it and 15,000.00 to Ruf and they will send you back a twin turbo 500 hp monster.
